➡️🇺🇸➡️Not so hot: America’s job market
美國的就業市場：讓子彈飛一會兒
America has an acute labour shortage. Some 11m positions remain vacant. Economists hoped that number would fall in September as schools re-opened and generous unemployment aid expired, nudging people back to work. But the Delta variant put pay to that. Hiring had slowed in August, all but vanishing in close-contact sectors such as leisure and hospitality. When the Department of Labour reports September’s non-farm payrolls on Friday, forecasters expect employers to have added a modest 300,000 jobs. That would push the unemployment rate down to 5.1%, still above its pre-pandemic level of 3.5%…
美國勞動力嚴重短缺，大約有 1,100萬個職位仍空缺。經濟學家們希望校園重啟以及慷慨的失業救助到期能促使人們重返工作崗位，而此一數字 (1,100萬個職缺) 能在九月份下降，但 Delta 變種病毒使事與願違。人員招聘在八月份放緩，且在 (人與人) 密切接觸的行業如休閒和飯店之職缺幾乎消失。當 (美國) 勞工部在週五報告出九月份的非農業就業人數時，預測員們預計雇主們將釋出三十萬個工作崗位，並使得失業率降至 5.1%，(儘管) 仍高於疫情大流行前的 3.5%水平…
